Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scan that produces detailed images of the inside of the body using radio waves and strong magnetic fields without using radiation. An MRI scanner is a large tube that contains powerful magnets. During the scan‚ you lie inside the tube. Almost any part of the body can be examined using an MRI‚ including the brain and spinal cord‚ bones and joints‚ heart and blood vessels‚ internal organs‚ and breasts. MRI scans are safe and painless. Almost everyone

Chapter 4‚ page 1 4 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Pieter Zeeman observed in 1896 the splitting of optical spectral lines in the field of an electromagnet. Since then‚ the splitting of energy levels proportional to an external magnetic field has been called the "Zeeman effect". The "Zeeman resonance effect" causes magnetic resonances which are classified under radio frequency spectroscopy (rf spectroscopy). In these resonances‚ the transitions between two branches of a single energy level

Li and Fung’s Core Strengths One of the core strengths of Li and Fung was acquisitions as they saw it as a means to sustain growth momentum. Most of the time they tried to “fill in the mosaic” by acquiring competitors in areas where they lacked positioning‚ expertise or talent. They just did not acquired companies they made them integrated with the old ones to make When they acquire companies Li & Fung’s strategy is to integrate incoming staff and streamline operations seamlessly within 100

MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has developed into one of the most versatile techniques in clinical imaging and biomedical research by providing non-invasively high resolution‚ three-dimensional anatomical and contrast-enhanced images of living tissue. The two most common groups of contrast-enhancing agents are gadolinium-based complexes and magnetic nanoparticles. Both types of contrast agents shorten locally the relaxation time of bulk water protons via rapid exchange

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scanner that uses strong magnetic field and radio waves to produce complete images inside the body. An MRI scanner is a large tube that contains strong magnets. The patient lie inside the tube during the scan. The MRI scanner is used to observe almost any part of the body including the brain and spinal cord‚ bones and joints‚ breasts‚ heart and blood vessels and internal organs such as the liver‚ womb or prostate gland. The results of an MRI scan can

INTRODUCTION: Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) is a non invasive medical imaging method widely used in hospitals and in research. In year 1946 Felix Bloch of Standard /university and Edward Purcell of Harvard University made the first succesful nuclear magnetic resonance experiment to study chemical compounds‚ they were awarded the Nobel Prize for physics in 1952. In early 1980 ’s the first human magnetic resonance imaging( MRI) scanners became available‚ producing images of the inside of the

C e n t r e o f M a n a g Core Competence Introduction:core competency is a concept in management theory originally advocated by CK Prahalad‚ and Gary Hamel‚ two business book writers. In their view a core competency is a specific factor that a business sees as being central to the way it‚ or its employees‚ works. A core competency can take various forms‚ including technical/subject matter know-how‚ a reliable process and/or close relationships with customers and suppliers. It may also include
